#9 Bee-Friendly Architecture – Wood-Hybrid Buildings Promote Biodiversity on the Hohenheim Campus
In this episode, we explore the Landesanstalt für Bienenkunde, a 2021-completed timber-hybrid building on the southern edge of the University of Hohenheim campus, surrounded by idyllic gardens. Designed by Lanz Schwager Architekten, this building unites research, teaching, and practice for the protection of the honeybee. It stands as a sustainable example of architecture dedicated to biodiversity and the future of beekeeping.
